'He was out to get me from the start': Employee deletes all his work files after being fired by manager who wants to take down the company

Getting fired is not a fun experience, that is a no-brainer. Nobody likes getting fired, and nobody wants it. Most of the time it comes out of nowhere, but sometimes you actually see it coming. Whether by listening to a hushed conversation between your supervisors or when you see a suspicious-looking meeting was added to your calendar.

I always wanted to be one of those employees who dare to teach the boss a lesson when they decide to fire you. Some kind of way to say "You are going to be sorry for letting me go", but I always end up being nice about it and accepting it quietly. 

The employee in this Reddit story did not go quietly when he got fired. OP (original poster) discovers that his boss is planning to bring down the firm by selling it to a different company. Right before that happens, OP gets fired and is told to get his documents ready for the move. OP,  angry at his now-former boss, deleted all his documents in response.
